Who sells this Defi gauge?

I believe it's a D-series (analog/mechanical) boost gauge with a bright transparent amber gauge dial and a red instrument pointer.

http://www.defi-shop.com/product/dg/dg_top.html

Defi has a picture of it on their website but I can't find it anywhere...not on eBay, none of our vendors, not even the private classifieds. Is Defi posting a picture of product they don't even sell or something? This kinda ish drives people nuts!

they only glow orange at night when you have your lights on. otherwise you have the choice of black or white face.

edit: looks like lancershop only sells black face D-gauges but the white face ones do exist...

Thanks Rezo. So basically what I'm looking at in the picture above is the black faced gauge (w/white writing) lit up at night...and when lit up the white writing looks orangish?

The D-gauge has been discontinued, if LancerShop has any left it's because they have some inventory left. I just sold my last one last week. I can't get anymore. Rumor has it there's a new D-gauge series coming out.

Now that I know what the gauge is, I found a lot of vendors selling it. I just didn't know until rezo's post above that the 2 pictures below are of the same gauge: the shot on the left taken at night and the shot on the right taken during the day.

Nice...I'm planning to just use the vacuum hose from the stock boost gauge, but how hard is it to find a power source?

use the radio harness, all you need for the D-gage is illumination....its the green wire with yellow stripe on the radio, or the third one from the top left if you're looking in to the harness. Use a nearby bolt for ground.
